I am institutionalized
Like every other man I got my eyes on the prize
I'm not into making an easy compromise
16 with six figures, but I'm not into lies

But I'm coming up with the tries
This ain't no easy breast no makeup on my eyes
Cause loose ends never come with the ties
And every damn shooting comes with less cries

And the whole worlds numb in a matter of time
When raps only a dance and we lose the rhyme
And the whole world is embodied with crime
When life runs out of lemons and start passing out limes

Wait

This stuff makes me mad, makes my toes really curl
Saying these "hoes" ain't loyal and replace it with girls
Like every female cheating in this whole damn world
As if every single lady leave her partner for pearls

And

They say I'm too white for the black, too black for the white
So I'm stuck in the middle peripheral , out of sight
And I may start my own group, I might
For the people who don't wanna be defined I'll fight

But I'm only human, and yes, I get offended
With stereotypes with blacks in juvenile detention
That reflects on the good ones, that's why I'm defensive
50% but I'm proud to be black american

Ever since I cut my hair, I fit the stereotype
Black girl, short hair, and every dress fits tight
I stand tall even though my head don't sit high
5'4, but when they hate I'm at a 10 foot height

I'm looking down on you, wondering how you can judge
How you can dislike me and hold a real weak grudge
The only one who can judge is God above
You're no reflection of perfection because I'm sure there's a smudge

So think about it for a second, for a minute in time
No one really asked to be alive
10 minutes of crying and asking the Lord why
People gotta be so cruel and end their life in five

You didn't choose your race it was given to you
It's a privilege, don't let the people get to you
White, black, Spanish, Hispanic, or maybe Asian
When you think about it Earth is where we're all raised in
